|
Telomerase |
Enz present in malignant cells that adds repeated nucleotide sequences to telomere ends. Expression of this enzyme has been shown to extend lifespan of cells (telomere length indicate lifespan of cell, as it shortens after every cell division) |
|

Emery dreifuss muscular dystrophy Dominant form- mutation in lamin a/c Recessive form- mutation in emerin |
Mutation in lamin or lamin receptors |
|
|
Late anaphase |
Re assemly of the nuclear envelope begins at what phase in mitosis |
|
|
Static population |
Consist of cell that no longer divide (CNS cells, skeletal or cardiac muscle cells) |
|
|
Stable cell populations |
Cells that divide episodically and slowly to maintain normal tissue and organ (perichondrial cells, periosteal cells, smooth muscle cells,endothelial cells of BV, fibroblast of Connective tissue) |
|
|
Renewing cell populations |
May be slowly or rapidly but display regular mitotic activity |
|
|

Slowly renewing cells eg (1) Rapidly renewing eg (2) |
|
|
To produce 2 daughter cells that has identical chromosomes of the parent cell |
Goal of cell cycle |
|
|
Interphase- continuous growth of cell, 3 phases G1, S, G2 subdivide interphase Mitosia- cell division |
2 phases of the cell cycle |
|
|
G1- cell gathers nutrients and synthesizes RNA and chons for DNA synthesis |
Longest phase. And events in such phase |
|
|
Terminal differentiation after Leaving the cell cycle at G1 |
What is the GO phase |
|
|
1. Restriction point- checks size of cell, state of physio process, interactions with extra cellular matrix 2. G1 DNA damage checkpoint- monitors the integrity of new replicated dna |
Checkpoints of G1 |
|
|
1.Dna is replicated 2. S DNA damage checkpoint- monitors quality of the replicating DNA |
Event in S Phase. And checkpoint |
|
|
"Cells prepares for cell division" A. G2 dna damage checkpoint B. Unreplicated DNA checkpoint - prevents progression to Mphase before DNA synthesis is complete |
Even in G2 phase. And checkpoints |
|
|

|
|
Cohesins and the centromere |
During prophase: The sister chromatids are held together by a ring of CHONs called |
|
|
Kinetochore- attached to specific repetitive DNA sequences known as satellite DNA |
A highly specialized protein attaches on each chromatid side oppositr to the centromete |
|
|
Metaphase 1. Astral microtubules- nucleated from the gamma-tubulin rings in a starlike fashion around each MTOC. 2. Polar microtubules- grow away from MTOC 3. Kinetochore microtubules- to probe the cytoplasm in search of kinetochore |
The phase of cell division that consist of three type of Microtubules, becomes organized at opposite poles of the cell |
